WEBVTT

00:00.940 --> 00:02.575
ANALYST BARRY McCAFFREY TO TALK

00:02.576 --> 00:03.246
ABOUT THIS.

00:03.281 --> 00:05.947
GENERAL, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR

00:05.982 --> 00:08.743
BEING WITH US THIS AFTERNOON.

00:08.745 --> 00:12.531
I WOULD LIKE TO GET YOUR TOP

00:12.532 --> 00:15.045
LINE REACTION AND YOUR

00:15.046 --> 00:16.744
REFLECTIONS ON WHAT WE WERE

00:16.745 --> 00:19.261
TALKING WITH.

00:19.295 --> 00:23.568
THE STATE OF PLAY AND WHAT HE

00:23.602 --> 00:24.797
HAS BEEN LEADING.

00:24.798 --> 00:28.330
>> FIRST, WE OUGHT TO ASSUME

00:28.331 --> 00:30.587
THAT THIS SIGNAL MRS. TRUMP DOES

00:30.621 --> 00:32.351
NOT SEE HIMSELF AS COMMANDER IN

00:32.352 --> 00:33.473
CHIEF THEY ONLY A FEW MORE

00:33.508 --> 00:34.162
MONTHS.

00:34.164 --> 00:36.679
IT MAKES NO LOGICAL SENSE

00:36.681 --> 00:39.070
WHATSOEVER TO FIRE SOMEBODY WHO

00:39.104 --> 00:41.894
IS HIGHLY QUALIFIED, LITERALLY

00:41.928 --> 00:46.992
WEEKS UNTIL YOU TURN OVER THIS

00:46.993 --> 00:47.906
OFFICE.

00:47.908 --> 00:51.538
SO ON BRIAN WILLIAMS A WHILE

00:51.539 --> 00:53.516
BACK I SAID THIS IS ENHANCED

00:53.550 --> 00:54.910
VIGILANCE FOR SECURITY FORCES OF

00:54.944 --> 00:56.391
THE U.S.

00:56.392 --> 00:59.374
I WOULD SAY WE OUGHT TO BE

00:59.376 --> 01:00.336
APPREHENSIVE ABOUT WHAT’S GOING

01:00.371 --> 01:00.761
ON.

01:00.762 --> 01:02.677
I DON’T HAVE A HANDLE ON THE NEW

01:02.711 --> 01:03.274
NOMINEE.

01:03.275 --> 01:07.906
I’M SURE HE’S A GOOD MAN.

01:07.908 --> 01:10.810
THIS IS AN UNUSUAL MOVE.

01:10.844 --> 01:14.510
YOU KNOW, AMERICANS NEED HE TO

01:14.544 --> 01:16.658
UNDERSTAND THAT THE MILITARY

01:16.660 --> 01:18.431
DOESN’T GIVE ORDERS TO THE ARMED

01:18.432 --> 01:18.931
FORCES.

01:18.932 --> 01:21.743
THAT’S THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE.

01:21.745 --> 01:25.346
TO THE NINE JOINT COMMANDERS

01:25.347 --> 01:28.672
GLOBALLY COMMANDING THE ACTUAL

01:28.706 --> 01:32.289
OPERATING FORCES, WE OUGHT TO BE

01:32.290 --> 01:33.859
WORRIED ABOUT THIS.

01:33.893 --> 01:35.519
THEY WILL FOLLOW ORDERS OF THE

01:35.520 --> 01:35.963
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
